Some find it funny to find out that my favorite thing in the world is not video games.  It’s not even anything that has to do with  pop culture. This sometimes shocks some people who contact me and who I have the time to reply to (Please note that like many people I do get a lot of emails and I cannot always reply to them all; however, be assured that I most certainly read them.)  People seem shocked when I say that  there is more to life than gaming. But there is – a lot more.

My favorite thing in the world is knowledge – learning. I know it sounds corny, pretentious, and a bit academic, but that is really what I love.

Now, I am by no means a “smarty pants,” but I do enjoy learning and stretching myself beyond what I think my current levels and abilities are. Sure, sometimes I fail forward, but that is how life is. If something feels scary to do (at least psychologically) then it is probably the right choice.
